Though she never said these words directly, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s dramatic pronouncement that she’s not supportive of impeaching POTUS Donald Trump on Monday was a blatant admission that a) Democrats don’t have anything on him that merits impeachment; and b) there is no political support in the country for it.

Angering the perpetually angered far Left of her party, Pelosi said that â€œunless thereâ€™s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan,” she’s not going to push for impeaching the president.

â€œIâ€™m not for impeachment,â€ she said in a March 6 interview conducted for a future issue of The Washington Post Magazine.

â€œThis is news,â€ she added. â€œI havenâ€™t said this to any press person before. But since you asked, and Iâ€™ve been thinking about this, impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless thereâ€™s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I donâ€™t think we should go down that path because it divides the country. And heâ€™s just not worth it.â€

Well, thanks primarily to the Democratic Party’s “#Resist,” “Ungovernable,” and “He’s not my president” movements, we’re already more divided as a nation than we’ve been in 150 years. So the only translation we can glean from her comments is: SheÂ can’tÂ impeach because he’s not done anything to merit it.

As partisan as Pelosi is, she’s also politically savvy. She knows that pursuing impeachment of POTUS Trump would be a death knell for a party that is already in trouble politically over its hard-Left embrace of socialism, as well as its new embrace of hate, intolerance, and bigotry.

The speaker is surely up to speed on what evidence Democrats actually have against Trump and has a fair sense of what Special Counsel Bob Muellerâ€™s report will say. And she recognizes that itâ€™s nothing that will persuade anyone who hasnâ€™t wanted Trump ousted since Election Day 2016.

Which means that moving to impeach him would be not just â€œdivisive to the country,â€ as she says, but also bad for Democrats â€” since it would show them as unable to resist the most demented demands of their base.

This, when last weekâ€™s pathetic failure to confront Rep. Ilhan Omarâ€™s anti-Semitism already exposed them as in thrall to extremists.

This won’t sit well with the Democratic Left, which is fast becoming the base of the party. AsÂ MSNreports:

The apparent contradiction shows that Pelosi is well aware of the political risks of impeachment and how pursuit of the president could energize Republicans voters ahead of the 2020 election. Still, her comments will almost certainly infuriate the far-left wing of the party, which has been clamoring to begin impeachment proceedings over controversies ensnaring the Trump administration.

Most House Democrats agree that they should give the chairmen of investigative committees the space to conduct their probes before engaging in serious impeachment discussions. But Pelosiâ€™s suggestion that she doesnâ€™t support those moves at all because â€œheâ€™s just not worth itâ€ wonâ€™t sit well with some in her caucus.

Along those lines, hyper-partisans from very safe districts — House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) and House Intelligence Chairman Adam “Leaker” Schiff (D-Calif.) — will pay little heed to Pelosi. They’ll continue to conduct one witch hunt after another, claiming that special counsel Robert Mueller’s two-year witch hunt didn’t go nearly far enough (though Mueller was empowered to investigate anything and everything related to Team Trump and the president).

Now, with Pelosi’s pronouncement that “impeachment isn’t in the cards,” we can expect these hyper-partisans to get even more aggressive in their subpoena war, which we have already said the president should ignore to the greatest extent possible by declaring executive privilege — like his predecessor.

What will she do about that? And how about the “mainstream media,” which has regularly exposed itself as little more than a propaganda arm of the Democrats? The Post:

Now, will Pelosi call off the dogs? Committee Chairmen Jerry Nadler and Adam Schiff will keep on subpoenaing away, and grandstanding for the cameras â€” in hopes of maybe somehow, someday, somewhere finding some genuine dirt, while at least harassing the president, his family and associates and feeding an endless string of breathless this time, Trump is going down reports.

Just as impeachment would be bad for the Democrats, chances are Americans will note that the press has been blaring those â€œscoopsâ€ for more than two years now, and not a one has panned out. Keeping it up only shows that not just the Democratic Party, but also most of the media, canâ€™t stop themselves from playing to the unhinged left.

The Leftist donor class is ticked off at Pelosi, too. Enter billionaire Tom Steyer, who has been spending portions of his capitalist fortune stumping for impeachment only, and nothing less. In an interview withÂ MSNBC‘s Chris Matthews, he said:

I think what sheâ€™s saying is â€œregardless of the information, regardless of how unfit he is, weâ€™re waiting for Republican permission to go forward and hold him accountable for his crimes, and I think if we, in fact, let the American people see through hearings exactly how lawless he is, theyâ€™ll insist he be removed from office immediately.

When asked by Matthews what ‘high crimes and misdemeanors’ the president should be charged with, Steyer echoed the talking points:

Â I think the two most obvious are articles, Chris, are obstruction of justice and straight up corruption, that heâ€™s been taking money from foreign countries.

“Obvious?” If so, where are the charges? Mueller’s had plenty of time. Democrats who reviewed evidence with Republicans for the past two years haven’t leveled those charges, either. Must mean they don’t exist?

What money from foreign countries? Oh, that “emoluments clause” thing? Good luck turning a hotel bill into a constitutional definition of official graft. Consider this: Would Trump charge his foreign buddies exorbitant fees to stay at his hotels if he was really trying to get in their good graces?

The Democrats have finally arrived at a place where we knew they would: The end of the impeachment road, a place where their angry voters have been waiting, and not so patiently. Their scheme to unseat our duly elected president has failed. They’ve been promising for two years they were going to “get him,” and they haven’t. They couldn’t.And now they’re out of ideas.

Several Democrats campaigned on this signature issue (Remember Tlaib’s “We’re gonna impeach the m-f’er!” pledge?). Let them reap what they’ve sown with their voters.

Democrats have become the enemy within! Watching them follow each other off the cliff is scary – but satisfying!
“We will never be a Socialist country!” “Murder is wrong.” Section 4 Clause 2 of US Constitution says government is supposed to protect us from invasion.
Democrats are failures – antithesis to American values – the ENEMY WITHIN!!!

Pelosi has a lot on her plate right now. With three freshman Congress women pulling the Dem party to the extreme left, adding impeachment to the mix would be too much for her to handle. Add to that, 26 Dems recently voted with Republicans on an immigration bill and were immediately threatened by Cortez with “keeping a list”. Right now, Pelosi is worried. She has 3 loose-canon rookies who are taking over the party with their own agenda because they know they can do it. Pelosi is very insecure on what to do so, she will do and say nothing.… Read more »
